 It is q pretty safe proposition that Arizona will experience more or less trouble with Indians as long as the San Carlos reservation is maintained. The present difficulty IS not at all serious but when the news is sent broadcast over the the country by telegraph, many people will be deterred from com ing to this territory, and thereby incalculable injury will be worked.

At least curtail its limits and let civilization throw an inyincible cordon around the Indians so as to render them harmless.-Phenix Gazette.

A great deal of speculation is hinged on the resuit.-Tempe News.
